KA-CHING!

Ka-ching! An imitation of the sound made by a cash register;  expression used when someone's action will result in more money; and also a song by Canadian singer Shania Twain.  

Here you have some facts about the song: 

- The song deals with America's consumer culture through the boom years of the 1990s and early 2000s. The line "all we ever want is more" is the general theme of the song.

- The music video for "Ka-Ching!" was shot in Mexico City and Madrid in January 2003.

This is one of five official videos of the song. Why don't you follow the video with the lyrics?  It's good practice for money vocabulary!



We live in a greedy little world,
That teaches every little boy and girl
To earn as much as they can possibly,
Then turn around and
Spend it foolishly
We've created us a credit card mess
We spend the money that we don't possess
Our religion is to go and blow it all
So it's shopping every Sunday at the mall
All we ever want is more
A lot more than we had before
So take me to the nearest store
Can you hear it ring
It makes you want to sing
It's such a beautiful thing, ka-ching!
Lots of diamond rings
The happiness it brings
You'll live like a king
With lots of money and things
When you're broke go and get a loan
Take out another mortgage on your home
Consolidate so you can afford
To go and spend some more when
You get bored
All we ever want is more
